choosing contacts when sending text messages - Legend General

Hey guys!
Got my legend yesterday and wanted to know something..
I linked some contacts with facebook and i´m connected with facebook.. now, when i wanna choose a contact to whom i wanna send a message it shows me every facebook contact i have and the people who are linked with facebook have 3-4 entries( FB email, email i added, their mobile number from FB and the number i added)
Thats pretty annoying if everyone has 4 entries.. so is it possible to only show the entries i added to my contacts without the facebook stuff?
Hope you guys understand what i mean

Contact/menu/view you can choose by list which contact i want to use.

Thank you.
In that case you have to remove the add book link to facebook. If not it will always display the email add from facebook is automatically displayed.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But if i do that wont that also remove the facebook mobile phone numbers too? ...
I didnt really wanna do that. I just wanted away with the email addresses in my contact list!
I'm not on the stock ROM anymore but I seem to remember there being a "Display only contacts with phone numbers" option somewhere. Just have a play around in the settings and I'm sure you'll find it.
For only show numbers in 2.1 Android:
Load people, hit menu, thenview.
As for what you are asking, I've yet to see anything.

linked contacts not sending

Ok I have a gmail user linked to a Facebook user. I didn't have this user in gmail so I created a shell (just the name). When linked the gmail user with the Facebook user I see one contact with cell pic act in my contact list. Great... but when if go to Google the contact still only has a name and noting else.
So, my question is how do I sync Facebook info with gmail?
Thank

Are you asking about exporting Facebook Friend contact data and importing that to a Google contact? Using your phone? I really don't think you can. Facebook Contacts friends details are not able to be exported, at least not using HTC contacts or MMS. The HTC people app is not designed to function like that, by populating one account with data from another account. It would be nice if it did have sine sort of sending out contact details. You could send contact data as a vcard to your gmail address and import using the website. But Facebook details don't populate to the vcard. I would like to be able to import more details into my Google contacts, but using my phones phone books other account types is not the way to go.

First let me say thanks for the response. And yes I wanted to sync the info in my phone (from Facebook) with my Google contacts. That makes me a little sad since it appears that Facebook and this phone work great together.
Well maybe one day.
Thanks again,

Facebook contact integration

Hello.
I have been using cm7 and loving it. Only thing I miss from original Tom is how facebook was tied together with Facebook and would provide updates and show recent picture.
Is there a way to have this on cm7?

No. One of the trade offs
Install Facebook from Market and turn on contact sync for existing contacts. Make sure the contacts on your phone have an email address to match with an email address listed in Facebook.
Thanks. Also I have seen Facebook picture sync apps are they any good?

I tried doing that, downloading Facebook and hoping it would sync everything but it didn't.
So I downloaded an app called 'Contapps' and through the settings you can sync your contacts with your Facebook account, and if theres contacts that don't automatically sync, you can do it manually.
facebook app will aloso sync if the names match exactly. I have mine all set like that and they sync just fine.
Mine seem to be syncing. They all show up as being linked under the contact, but for some contacts their picture doesn't show even though it is linked. Any ideas? And also is there a way to make it so those facebook pics don't show up so blurry in the caller id?
just upgrade to google plus and kiss Facebook Bye Bye.
If you need to see what person look like prior to calling them, you don't know them well enough.
Just edit the contact, and if they're already linked to their Facebook account, click the Facebook photo and choose to "Use this photo."

Not understanding how contacts work...

I noticed that some of my contacts have their Facebook pictures associated with their info and there is a little Facebook icon on the contact.
Where are those contacts coming from? Is it pulling the contacts from my Gmail account and if an email address matches one of my Facebook friends it links them?
I'm just really confused. Also if I edit my Gmail contacts on my computer how do I get them to update on my phone? I deleted hundreds of "junk" contacts and they're still on the phone.
The facebook pics are pulled from facebook when the person has their number listed and u have the same number as a contact. To get rid of the junk contacts make sure every contact u need is synced to gmail then delete all ur contacts and resync from gmail.

In contacts, click the icon in the upper left that looks like 3 people and disable your facebook contacts from showing in the contacts screen.

sync facebook accounts

hi!
i want to sync facebook accounts only with people on my phone app. but, when i active sync (facebook app / for htc sense) it just add alot of people i dont want in my phone book! i chossed to sync only with existing contacts. the facebook names are in English and contacts name are in Hebrew. so i want to go each contact and link it to his facebook account. now it will add alot to my phone book i cant even delete....
some1 have this problem? how i fix it? i had this problem with all roms! (and i used alot! from 1.32 base and up to kingdom base)
If you press menu, and look for "View" or "Display options", in Settings I think, you'll see that you can change which contacts you want to view. Facebook, Phone, SIM, Google. If you deselect Facebook, it takes all those contacts away, leaving you with the rest, which will still be attached to Facebook.

I had to copy all my contacts from my sim then facebook would sync photos and info across gradually
Thanks 2 of you, but i have display only on people application. im talking about phone application.
and my contacts are on google. and i can sync the contacts (manually), but there are atill more contacts i dont want to see there....
What do you mean by phone application? Your phone app gets your contacts from the People app, straight and simple. Please elaborate
